Critical Mass London 13th Anniversary ride.

The very well attended Mass got off to a good start, despite a spelling mistake on the kindly donated t-shirts. There was the usual large police presence with its intimidatory videoing of riders.

The police returned to their previous tactic of blocking the front of the ride, thus adding to traffic congestion. At the entrance to Parliament Square the front of the ride was blocked for several traffic light cycles. Finally, in frustration, and after some booing at the blockers, riders decide to go around on the pavement to enter the Square. After several circuits of Parliament Square the ride accidentally split into two but managed to join up again in the Strand. Videoing stopped at about 9pm, while the ride continued on into the night heading Eastwards.

The video should play on both Quicktime and latest Windows Media Player.
